Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has publicly responded to recent controversies surrounding her personal life, confirming that she underwent a drug test following weeks of speculation and social media scrutiny.
In a statement posted on her Instagram page on Wednesday, Daniels said the decision came after months of emotional strain and persistent public attention. She described the period as challenging and said it prompted reflection on her personal circumstances and public image.
Daniels explained that she chose to take the test to reassure those who supported her and to address claims that circulated widely online, including allegations that she was a drug addict. She said the rumours led her to closely examine herself and her situation, but maintained that the claims were unfounded.
She noted that the experience had influenced her outlook, pushing her towards a phase focused on self-discovery, personal growth, and intentional living. Daniels also expressed gratitude to her family, friends, members of the public, and to God for support during the period.
The development comes amid sustained public attention on her marriage to businessman and lawmaker, Senator Ned Nwoko. In recent months, reports have emerged suggesting a breakdown in the relationship, accompanied by exchanges of allegations between both parties.
Daniels had accused Nwoko of domestic abuse and of attempting to compel her into rehabilitation through pressure on members of her family. Nwoko has denied the allegations, stating that any steps taken were motivated by concern for her wellbeing, and countered with claims that the actress was facing substance-related challenges.
